Cuban Foreign Policy

It is perhaps impossible to comprehend recent developments in Cuba without understanding Cuban foreign relations. The latter task has been made much more transparent with the appearance of this splendid book. Rich with original insight and filled with new information, the collection offers perspectives and points of view unavailable anywhere else, from within Cuba and beyond. Erisman and Kirk are to be congratulated for the breadth and depth of their selections. -- Louis A. Pérez, Jr., University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Kirk and Erisman, longtime scholars of Cuban foreign policy, have put together an excellent volume analyzing the impact of President Raúl Castro's principled but pragmatic approach to Cuba's role in the world. Collectively, the contributions demonstrate the continued prominent role that Cuba plays in the world even as it faces renewed hostility from Washington. -- Gary Prevost, College of Saint Benedict/Saint John's University
This work provides a superb overview of Cuban foreign policy in the more pragmatic period since Raúl Castro assumed power. Written by leading experts in their respective fields, this important book is required reading for all those who want to understand Cuba’s foreign relations in the post-Fidel era. -- Harry E. Vanden, University of South Florida
